Solve:
5y + 34 = -2(-7y+1)

• y = -4

• y = 9

• y = 4

• y = 36/19

What is the first step you should take to solve this problem?

1 + 4n - 6n = 1 - 8n

• subtract 8n to both sides

• multiply 6n to both sides

• combine the like terms 4n + -6n

• add 1 to both sides

What is the error?

• Adding 2x to 3x

• Subtracting 5 from both sides

• Adding 2x to -2x

• Dividing by 5 on both sides
